You think you want that sweet, Mario Batali summer summer home-style built-in oven, but you don’t. Unless you have the square footage and a few patient sous chefs, those things are a pain in ass to set up. First, you need to chop the tree. Then split the logs. Toss them in. Light the fire. Wait for it to get to temperature. The Uuni 2S does away with all that by using compressed wood pellets. Pizzaiolos may complain that you’re not doing it the hard way. Let them rant. These wood nuggets turn the oven into 900-degrees of cheese-bubbling, crust-blistering, pepperoni-caramelizing power in just under 10 minutes, and pizzas take 90 seconds to cook on its stone surface.

Tell Dominos to use their tracker to find your house — because that’s where this summer’s best slices are coming from.
